@kevinmullin.house.gov impeach him now!!
If this makes you mad, you should harass your House Representative. Tell them to co-sponsor the articles of impeachment.
Tag their accounts, flood their website, call their DC and district offices, email them, share the @standupforscience.bsky.social petition, call your local news, write an op-ed.

RFK Jr. has been busy this week:
- Defunded the AAP for criticizing him
- Funded an anti-vax group from Denmark to conduct an unethical Hep B study in Guinea Bissau
- Made anti-science policy that is going to deeply harm trans kids
- Instructed the CDC to stop recommending vaccines

Today I received FOUR death notifications for people in ICE custody. That's 30 deaths since Trump took office. It's appalling & unacceptable.
ICE is required—by law—to ensure detainees are safe & their basic needs are met. It's clear this isn't the case. We NEED answers.

Hoping everyone who talks on speaker phone and plays videos or candy crush at full volume in public has bad things happen to them. Not super bad. But stub your toe and bite and re-bite the inside of your cheek bad.

Having the Coast Guard, which falls under the Department of Homeland Security, decide that a swastika isn’t really a symbol of hate? That makes me, an American Jew, feel pretty damn unsafe.

Ibuprofen is very literally the ONLY thing that helps my chronic pain. It is my lifeline.
They say this shit because they want to eliminate all disabled and chronically ill people from the face of the earth and a great way to do that is to strip us of all of the medications that help us survive.
